Bugaboo Christmas in July Challenges

So starting last Saturday and all thisweek, Catch the Bug is having Christmas in July challenges. A great reason to start those Christmas cards and win some fun Bugaboo images. I so want to play along but was gone all weekend so now I am playing catch up. The good news is that I took a bunch of images with me to color so now I only have to put the cards together and follow the themes. Saturday's theme was Make It Sparkle! So this morning before I headed out to work at Opportunity House I put together this card.

I used the Christmas Jar image and colored it up with Spectrum Noir markers and die cut it with Gina Marie Designs Cross Stitch Rectangles. The sentiment is a retired Gina K set called Blessed is the Season. I die cut that and it's background with MFT Pierced Fishtail Flags. The background paper is a green glitter paper and I embellished with gold and diamond Stickles. This card really sparkles! I also added some candy cane Doodle Twine.
I am entering these challenges:

Now I am off to get dinner together and go take care of the twins this evening. Never a dull moment around here. Hope to be back soon with more Christmas and thank yous as I am still trying to get those finished up. Thanks for stopping by. Have a wonderful day!

What a cute Christmas card! Love the bright colors and glittery background! I am still working on some sewing projects for Ruby. I will post when I am finished. I don't know when I will get to my card making LOL!Pamscrap-n-sewgranny.blogspot.com
